$99 for the complete package — examination, x-rays, and cleaning. That's a flat rate with no hidden fees. We also accept most insurance plans including Medicaid, and offer in-house financing through CareCredit if you need additional work done.

We're at 800 Juan Tabo Blvd NE, Suite Q, Albuquerque, NM 87123 — in northeast Albuquerque near the intersection of Juan Tabo and Menaul. Plenty of parking, easy in and out.

We hear this a lot, and it's why we exist. Dr. Namburi is described by patients as "very empathetic, patient, and took the time" to explain everything before doing it. We offer sedation dentistry for procedures, and we never rush — we talk through every step so you know exactly what's happening. No surprises, no judgment about how long it's been since your last visit.

Absolutely. Children's dentistry is one of our core services. Parents report that Dr. Namburi "makes kids feel comfortable and makes them laugh." We recommend bringing children in around age 1 or when their first tooth appears. The goal: build positive memories before fear gets a chance to develop.

Customers choose DR. DENTAL for transparent communication about treatment options and pricing combined with a kind, competent staff in an efficiently organized office. We're a veteran-owned practice with a dentist who holds degrees from three countries, is a member of both the ADA and AAID, and has been practicing for over 15 years. We accept Medicaid, offer CareCredit financing, welcome walk-ins, and speak Spanish. Most Albuquerque practices focus on cosmetic upsells — we focus on keeping your whole family healthy, comfortably, at prices you can actually afford.
